Toners are often misunderstood. Their use is often underestimated, and a lot of people are still unaware of the benefits a great toner can offer.
What your toner shouldn't be doing:
Your toner shouldn't sting or dry out your skin like many harsh chemical-filled ones at the store. This isn't an aftershave after all! Instead, they should leave your skin feeling soft, plump and glowy.
Your toner should also be professionally formulated with an effective preservative to ensure you aren't spraying harmful bacteria all over your face (a big concern in the natural beauty products industry), unless of course you are mixing a fresh diy toner for yourself regularly and keeping it refrigerated.
Now, let's see what a toner should do.
